PROBLEM OF THE JOBLESS MAN.
IN one of the big cities is a man who for 20 years has been
running a 10 cent lodging house, says the Fargo, N. D
1 News. Let's call him Smith. ' ''
In that time Smith has, sheltered probably 200,000 hard
up men, many of 'em close to the class of "down and outers."
Smith isn't rich, though he is not in business for his health
Twenty years daily contact hadn't casehardened him. His heart
often overrides his head.
The other night a line of applicants for shelter filed past
many without the price of a bed. '
, "Hold up your foot!" Smith commanded this to each of those
who couldn't pay.
If the' able of the foot showed through the sole of the shoe,
Smith motioned him to go in that man's literally "on his up
pers," was too much for Smith'swarm heart. He got a lodirimr
free.
"How do you classify your guests?" Smith was asked.
'Ten per cent of them are hopeless wrecks," he said. "Anoth
er 1,0 per cent are booze victims, drug victims, vice victims
pretty far gone; too far to be able to brace up without steady,
and patient help. But 80 per cent have simply lost their nerve
because of the haunting uncer-tainty of employment. They are
men who would make good if they could get steady jobs at fair
Vnges and with fair treatment."
In this connection, we note with interest that there is soon to
be a national conference on unemployment. Not national in an
official sense, but only in the fact that many cities and states
will be represented unofficially.
Some do not believe that the past winter is really so much
worse than its predecessors in this matter of unemployment.
Those who do fail to agree as to the reason, or frankly give it
up. Republican politicians are freely blaming it all on Demo
cratic sins, commited or expected. A Democratic paper, the
Newark (N.J.) Star, sees industrial enterprise flourishing, and
has no doubt that the railroad companies, by stopping im
provments, throwing tens of thousands of men out of work are
ui piiiicipai cause oi unemployment." Socialists tell us that a
high tariff, low tariff or no tariff, currency reform or no cur
rency reform, your conditions are just the same and must remain
the same until the necessary means of life are owned by those
who use them." Most non-Socialist papers, however, agree that
unemployment is in large part "due to failure to get the man and
the job together." As the New York World observes:
"Every summer our farmers suffer for lack of he'lp at high
wages wjth good board. Every winter our cities fill with idle
men, for some of whom there is work if they knew where to
look for it. Humanity has no BTPntor tnt fn w -..n:--
- --- f - uut vi UUWHlJf
down seasonal idleness and enabling the willing man out of work
i uiiu a iasK ii mere is one waiting for him anywhere. After
this has been attended to, it will be time for greater severity to
ward those whose real ambition is to live without working."
Anyway, the national convention idea is a worth-while start
toward a solution too long neglected in this country; but let us
hope it won't be high-browed ; le t us hope there will be plenty of
bmiths on the program-men who know what unemployment is.
It isn t enough to say as former President Taft said: "God
knows what to do about the unemployed."
It is Uncle Sam's task to" find out; and to act.

WOOL SELLS AT ADVANCE.
PENDLETON, Or., March G.Receiving a cent more per
pound than the same grade of wool brought last year at
this time, the Cunningham Sheep &. Land company has
just sold 2G.000 pounds of buck wool to R. p. Ricknell &
Co., of Philadelphia. This is the first wool sali of the soason in
Umatilla county. The price paidwas 'l.'i cents.
In speaking of the deal J. N. Burgess, president of the Cun
ningham company, said: "The wool this year was GO per cent
from the old bucks and 40 per cent from young bucks. Last year
7a per cent of our buck wool was from young bucks. Therefore
it was better grade and the price received this year is an ad
vance. The buyers discount the old buck wool one third but take
the young buck wool at the market price. I estimate that we re
ceived a cent more for the wool than we did last year "
This telegraphic news item shows how unduly excited the
sheep-men were over the free wool clause of the tariff bill. With
ii law, which is now prepared, compelling manufacturers to use
wool Instead of shoddy in all woolen goods they make, the sheep-

he is especially pleased with the way
tne city schools of Corvallis have taken
hold of the industrial work, on account
of the influence it may have upon oth
er city schools of the state.
Being located almost under tho shad-
ow of tho agricultural college, other
scnools naturally feel that they have
exceptional opportunities, and expect to
seo them take the lend. The facts are,
however, that tho college does no more
for tho schools of Corvallis and Hen ton
county than for those of any other town
or county. The institution is supported
by the state and the federal gvernment,
and in their ca.ro to not give the peo
ple of the home county anv better snr.

tho state, there is sometimes a feeling
Hy the local citizens that they almost
RO to the other extreme, and give them
less. Not in a complaining spirit, how-
over, is this expression made.
In company with Cit.y Superintendent
B. U Kirk and County Superintendent
U. F. Cannon, Field Worker N. C. Maris
visited and organized industrial clubs in
the grade schools of Corvallis last
Tuesday. In his talks to tho pupil, Air
Maris told them of the mistaken Imiires.
"ion other schools had of their ad
vantageous position, and appealed to
them to measure up to their expecta
tion, and he says he has not met with
net tor response in nny school.
In the Central school, tho children
were divided according to age and ad
vancement and organized Into three
septate clubs. At the North and South
schools, just one dub was organized in
each. The total membership of the five
clubs was a little over 400. This is
practically all the pupils of eligible Bge
in tho grades.
Ilefore leaving Wednesday, Mr, Marls
addressed the high school pupils who
were going to hold a special meetinir in
the evening to effect an organization.
Ihey recently organized a good, live
rarent Teacher circle, which is coinir to
co-operate in the Industrial fair work.
They held a meeting Monday evening
which was addressed by City Siierln
tendent Kirk, I'rofessor Oriffin, Mr.
